NOTE: BEFORE FOLLOWING THESE STEPS, YOU SHOULD HAVE A BASE KNOWLEDGE
OF HOW TO ACTUALLY MACHINE SOMETHING ON A MANUAL MILL.  IF YOU DON'T
KNOW HOW TO MACHINE, IT'S OK TO ASK SOMEONE WHO DOES...



Milling Maching Steps:

1: Create desired model as a part in Creo

2: Create the Work Piece in Creo

3: Create a new "Manufacturing" file

4: Assemble Work Piece (drop down from "work piece",
   select "assemble work piece")

5: Assemble Model (called "reference model") 
   -Constrain the model to be within the work piece

6: Create new coordinate system for G54 (On Haas TM1, X+ is the
   long direction of the table pointed right. Y+ is the short 
   direction pointed to the back of the machine. Z+ is pointed up.) 

7: Select machine: Work Center drop down, User defined work center,
   Find haas.gph

8: Create new Operation: Click Operation. Select Haas machine and 
   G54 coordinate system.  Then click "mill" tab on top.

9: Create Operations with desired tools that are in the haas. 
   (if a tool is different than is in the .gph file, be sure 
    to update it before continuing)
   (this is the step that you have to actually know things about
    milling processes)

10. Play path for entire operation. Right click on operation name in model 
    tree, select "play path"

11. Save .ncl file from "play path" control window (Make sure this is 
    the play path for entire operation not a single sequence) 

12: Create G code: Manufacturing tab, Top right button, "Post a CL File"
    Select .ncl file that you just saved, Make sure 'Verbose' and 'Trace'
    are the only things checked.
    Click done. When prompted, Enter a 5 digit number.

13: Go to saved Directory Open .tap file and add G54 at top of code after
    file number.

           WELL ABOVE YOUR PART BEFORE ACTUALLY CUTTING METAL***---
	---*** IF YOU DON'T... YOU MIGHT BREAK SOMETHING AND MR.STIRLING 
           WILL GET A BIT UPSET WITH YOU FOR BEING FOOLISH***---
